Dollar Tree was the usual first stop. The drink product mix is shifting, but stock levels remain excellent. The online price of a 2x4x8 stud at Home Depot is still $3.85. Aldi was last. We found everything we wanted, but my preferred chocolate has gone up again to $2.69. Staple prices were: Bread (20 oz. white): $1.39 Eggs: $4.97 (limit 2) Whole milk: $2.84 (-) Heavy cream: $5.29 OJ: $4.09 Butter: $3.75 Bacon: $3.99 Potatoes: $4.39 Sugar: $2.99 Flour: $2.35 80% ground beef: $4.59 Untainted regular gasoline at Weigels is still $3.59/gallon.

I’m doing that right now and it’s one of those boring-but-worth-it money wins. Operation Independence Update on the GSD weekend! Huge thanks to Valerie, Lynne, Tracy, Steve, Bryan, Tactical, and Knighthawk—and of course Bob, who we tried to kill. It was a solid weekend of getting things done and building community. Main Topic of the Day: Busting Through Analysis Paralysis I Why We Get Stuck in Analysis Paralysis Fear of making the wrong move or wasting resources Drowning in too much information and too many choices Perfectionism in disguise—waiting until it’s “just right” Pressure from external voices: what you should do versus what you want to do II How to Align Your Efforts for Real Progress Start by documenting where you spend your time Revisit your vision and purpose Know your own wiring—planner, doer, thinker?

Syndicated from The Living Free Podcast, a project of Nicole Sauce. Today, we begin to explore a bigger picture question about AI: Will it make us more or less free? Featured Event: Member Webinar on Homeopathy Sponsor 1: HollerRoast.com Sponsor 2: AbovePhone.com , Coupon code LivefreeTN Will AI Make Us More Or Less Free? First, how do we define freedom? The counter tension is those who wish to control and build power bases. So this question is a pretty big question: Will AI make us more or less free? AI’s Inherent Bias AI as a Search Engine Replacement Technocracy vs. Liberty AI as a Creation Tool vs. Scam Weapon Recommended Steps to Stay Free USE AI but with a critical Learn to protect your privacy, Use tools like Above Phone Be wary of too-good-to-be-true offers—even from people you know Set up a family/friend safe word Don’t blindly trust outputs—verify and think - especially the smaller details Avoid emotional or functional dependency Stay capable without the tool; don’t let it run your life AI can help you build the life you want—or quietly undermine it - and if we just ignore it, it will move toward the status quo: empowering the oligarchs not the individual. Freedom means staying awake and staying critical without burying your head in the sand. Make it a great week! GUYS!

Today, we talk about the word of the year and more specifically MY word of the year: Enrich. Big lessons so far in 2025 for me. Also, we will cover our usual monday segments: Tales from the prepper pantry, a frugality tip and operation independence. Featured Event: The LFTN GSD Weekend is Upon Us! livingfreeintennessee.com/event/lftn-gsd-weekend/ Sponsor 1: EMPShield.com , coupon code LFTN Sponsor 2: AgoristTaxAdvice.com/LFTN Tales from the Prepper Pantry Launching a new video short series this week: Can You Do That with Mayonnaise? Freezers go in their permanent spot this week, and one becomes the "workshop food" freezer! This is how I stay organized so we can find everything for the workshop. Taco Soup Idea From Janna Gillard The Salsa Jar Hijink Frugality Tip from Margo Do you frequently cut the sleeves off of T-shirts? I do, because someone I live with only wears sleeves to work. I use the sleeves for rags and plant ties, but the other day I cut a sleeve off and for some reason I was like let me see if this fits on my head....guess what the sleeve of his XXL T-shirt makes a great headband for me. So yet another use for something you would normally throw away. I know I always am looking for a crappy headband when I am going to do a facemask, now I will keep a sleeve or two around. Happy Saving y'all Operation Independence Tomato Seedlings look GREAT - not buying any plants this year. Scored $150 on a left behind part of my car - Purging is also enriching my supplies budget! Mayo thoughts Main Topic of the Day: Word of the Year Update: Enrich A reminder: Choosing a word of the year is about setting an intention to guide your decisions and energy throughout the year. "Enrich" was chosen to focus on sharpening, refining, and deepening—not just doing more, but doing better. Lesson 1: Enrich the People It Serves Lesson 2: Purge What Doesn’t Serve Lesson 3: Slowing My Roll Conclusion The key to enriching our world here at the Holler Homestead is not about how many memberships or Spring Workshop tickets can I sell today and much more about asking two key questions: How is this going to enrich the buyer or participants? How does this enrich my life? Make it a great week! GUYS! Don’t forget about the cookbook, Cook With What You Have by Nicole Sauce and Mama Sauce.

Episode 1017: The Power Of Starting Strong: Make Your Own Mesophilic Culture Today, we talk about how to make your own mesophilic culture at home so you can reduce save money and develop your own cheese flavors over time. Really having a strong start in cheese is as important as doing so in life, isn't it? And nurturing your starts in life is as important as hitting things hard ever day. We will also cover our usual Monday segments. Member Webinar: Building Small Scale Events On Your Homestead, Sunday, March 23 at 3pm Central: https://www.livingfreeintennessee.com/courses/creating-small-scale-events-on-your-homestead (Members you know what to do!) Sponsor 1: AgoristTaxAdvice.com/LFTN Sponsor 2: DiscountMylarBags.com Do me a favor? Drop a review at iTunes and share this podcast out to your friends. LFTN on Facebook and Telegram Tales From The Prepper Pantry No progress on floor Spring Cleaning - Processing meat: Bacon, scotch eggs, grinding lamb, scotch eggs Tomato seedlings planted and germinated Looking to purge the grains from storage The tunnel Weekly Shopping Report from Joe Dollar Tree was the usual first stop. I noted again that the Health aisle was stuffed. In particular. We didn’t go in, but the price of a 2x4x8 stud at Home Depot still shows $3.85 online. Aldi was next. We found everything we wanted, but there were only a few bars of my preferred chocolate (70% cacao) left. Staple prices were: bread (20 oz. white): $1.39; eggs: $5.97 (limit 2); whole milk: $2.92 (+); heavy cream: $5.29; OJ: $4.09 (+, and very little); butter: $3.75; bacon: $3.99; potatoes: $4.39; sugar: $2.99; flour: $2.35; and 80% ground beef: $4.59. Food City for a 22 lb. Bag of Meow Mix (that our cats ask for by name). Pet foods were well-stocked. Untainted regular gasoline at Weigels is still $3.59/gallon. Frugality Tip From Jordon St. Patrick’s Day is upon us, it’s a fairly big day up in Maine since there is a large Irish population here, so cabbages are on sale for the boiled dinner feast! Tonight we snagged 3 juicy cabbages at the grocery store for 39¢ a lb. Made 3 half gallons of sauerkraut for $5! Hope you have a lucky 🍀 Monday! Jordan Operation Independence GSD Weekend March 29 & 30 in the Holler - Staining, building a composting outhouse deck, hauling off construction debris, building a new humanure barrel, setting up the classroom, hanging the presentation tv, etc. Main Topic of Today's Show. What is a Mesophilic Culture and Why Should You Care? Mesophilic culture is a bacterial starter used for cheesemaking, cultured dairy, and fermentation. 70-85 for fermentation. Used as the base for feta, cultured cream cheese, chevre, farmer’s cheese, mozzarella, etc. Why: Saves money, adapted to your environment, adds resilience, it’s fun How to Make It Making a Mesophilic Starter Find Culture Prepare the milk Inoculate & Ferment: Store & Maintain: What If I Cant Get Culture or Cultured Buttermilk? Quality Raw Milk Leave at room temperature Smell/taste Treat like a cultured buttermilk starter Thought Of The Walk On Cheese Culture This process is a perfect analogy for life. You get out what you put in—a weak start leads to weak results. Just like a good mesophilic culture ensures better cheese, a good mindset, strong habits, and the right influences ensure better outcomes in life. Sometimes we forget to nurture ourselves and those things that are most important to is, resulting in weak starts – and what do you do with a weak start? Make it a great week! GUYS!

Join me for a discussion all about kefir, its origins, its benefits, how to make it and HOW TO USE IT!Sponsor 1: Permies.com FUNDLE $45: https://permies.com/wiki/223017f495/Fundle-fungi-bundle Sponsor 2: AgoristTaxAdvice.com Shout out: Canary Cry Radio! https://www.youtube.com/watch?reload=9&v=XK4bqtxb1PA Tales from the Prepper Pantry Bacon Week Slicing Like a Mad Woman Ground Lamb The Carnivore Scotch Egg Test Operation Independence No more TAHOE 1. Why Kefir Matters More than just a probiotic – Kefir is a living ecosystem of bacteria and yeast, offering benefits beyond typical fermented foods. Gut health & digestion – Restores microbiome balance and may help with IBS. Immune system support – Contains natural antibacterial and antifungal compounds. Bone health & longevity – High in calcium, magnesium, and vitamin K2, supporting bone density. Why it beats store-bought probiotic drinks – No added sugars, no preservatives, and a wider range of beneficial microbes. The Mysterious Origins of Kefir No one knows! Ancient legends – Believed to have originated in the Caucasus Mountains, with stories linking it to nomadic herders or religious figures. Some claim kefir grains were a gift from the Prophet Muhammad to Orthodox Christians. Others suggest they evolved naturally in animal skins used for storing milk. Why scientists can’t recreate it – Unlike yogurt cultures, kefir grains cannot be artificially synthesized, making them a true biological mystery. Kefir grains are a complex symbiotic community (SCOBY) that must be propagated from existing grains. Attempts to isolate and recreate them in labs have failed, suggesting a unique co-evolution with traditional dairy farming. 4. The Science Behind Kefir Fermentation Bacteria vs. Yeast – A Perfect Partnership Bacteria (Lactic Acid Bacteria - LAB) – Convert lactose into lactic acid, lowering the pH and thickening the milk. Yeasts – Break down sugars into ethanol and carbon dioxide, adding mild effervescence and contributing to flavor complexity. Acetobacter species – Convert ethanol into acetic acid, giving kefir its subtle tang. How fermentation transforms milk Lactose breakdown – Kefir becomes more digestible for lactose-intolerant individuals. Nutrient enhancement – Increases B vitamins, calcium, and K2, making nutrients more bioavailable. Probiotic boost – Contains up to 50+ strains of beneficial bacteria and yeast, making it superior to yogurt in microbial diversity. How to Make Kefir at Home Basic Steps: Add kefir grains to whole milk (raw or pasteurized, but avoid ultra-pasteurized). Cover loosely and let ferment 12-24 hours at room temperature. Strain the grains, store finished kefir in the fridge, and repeat the process. Troubleshooting Common Issues: Too sour? Shorten fermentation time or use cooler temperatures. Too thin? Use higher-fat milk or ferment longer. Off flavors? Check milk quality and ensure grains are healthy. 6. Ways to Use Kefir Beyond Drinking It Culinary Uses: Smoothies & flavored kefir – Blend with fruit, honey, or spices. Salad dressings & dips – Use as a tangy base for ranch or tzatziki. Kefir cheese & butter – Strain whey to make a spreadable cheese. Second Fermentation for More Flavor & Fizz: How to do it – Store strained kefir in an airtight bottle with fruit or honey for another 12-24 hours. Why it works – Yeasts consume remaining sugars, boosting carbonation. Best add-ins: Citrus peel, ginger, berries, vanilla bean. Make it a great week! GUYS!

Join me for a discussion of how the heavy rains created minor flooding in the barn one day before we needed to give the sheep access and what we did to dry it out. We will also cover all our usual Monday Segments. Featured Event: Blueberry Hill Sunday Meetup in Knoxville: https://www.livingfreeintennessee.com/event/bluebird-hill-open-house-gathering/ Sponsor 1: TheWealthSteadingPodcast.com Sponsor 2: EMPShield.com Coupon Code: LFTN Tales from the Prepper Pantry Processing 2 Ewes with Prolapses, lots of ground meat Homemade Roast Beef Sandwich Meat Prepper Pantry Update Frugality Tip From Margo Stopping in the middle of a project when you run out of something and having to go get more can be annoying. What's more annoying to me is wasting time to go save a dollar or two. While I am probably one of the most frugal people I know with money, I value my time a lot as well. So save some time and run to the closest store and spend an extra $2 and finish the task. Happy Savings y'all ~Margo Operation Independence $10 Ultrasound Seedlings Main topic of the Show: Small Changes, Big Results - Tales From A Barn Underwater Biggest local flood since 2010 Back Story What We found How we divided work What T did End Result In the end, a small change every day makes the biggest difference in your world. Just ask Angry Prepper about walking for 15 minutes after each meal. Make it a great week! GUYS! Don’t forget about the cookbook, Cook With What You Have by Nicole Sauce and Mama Sauce.
